I hear some calling for boycotting elections, but I think that&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

It recalls those pictures of war ravaged African cities where dark faces congregate by seemingly useless buildings to stare at nothing as feet force people on to nowhere in particular. But it is West Queen Street, downtown Kingston, Jamaica, the Wednesday when things are supposedly returning to normal after the Jamaica [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the summer of 2007, Jamaicans went to the polls and decided that after 18-plus years of PNP rule they wanted a change. They voted Bruce Golding and the JLP into power and, in the process, made Portia Simpson Miller’s stint as PM one of the briefest.
